Obviously there should be a cutsman on hand to ensure the longevity of the fight.

i dunno what the benefit would be

i quite like the between round chats with cornermen

its a pretty shit idea really
Hahaha!

Seriously though, it would sort out the men from the boys.

Theyd be fucked trying to stick ear buds in cuts with gloves on though, or applying grease to the faces

Imagine if you did the same with football. No manager on the sidelines. Youd end up with 11 idiots cluelessly running around like headless chickens. Or England
